So there we have it. Ben Nelson is a liar, a phony, and a sell-out. Nebraska, you know what you have to do: vote the bum out.

Do the elite polititians care more about their own power and self-interests or the wishes and well-being of the American people?

Today, we have our answer. We have now crossed the line into what America was into something else.

In 2010 & 2012, there will a political reckoning by the American people.

Everyone in every state whose “leaders” voted for or supported this bill in any fashion should receive the following message....
“You will be receiving your pink slip next election cycle.NO MORE.”

I sent this poem to Nelson to his e-mail address. I think it adequately expresses my own feelings.

When winds of conscience waft about thy head,
And brooks of rue do babble in thy brain,
Seek not thy quietude in lonely bed,
Nor utter careful words to stay thy pain.
For though words chosen well may ease the smart,
And turn the wretched, hateful wrong to right,
Alas, in sooth, they cannot touch the heart,
Nor kill Remorse, which flies upon the night,
With Satan, the Accuser, who will steal,
Betimes to whisper softly in thine ears,
Of dark deeds done; of rack, of cord, of wheel,
And play upon the pipes of hidden fears.

Thus torn asunder, none shall see thy strife;
Thy spotted hand; thy bloody, dripping knife.

Ben Nelson is such a mild mannered guy. How could we have known
he was a prostitute?

Well, I guess that “D” behind his name was something of a tip.

Can’t call anyone right now! THE CAPITAL PHONE LINES ARE MELTING DOWN! The main line just rings and rings. Tried calling Chambliss’s office direct and got a weird generic call center message for a mail box system (not his), tried calling Isakson’s office direct and got the voice mail to Mark Warner’s office! Just tried the main line again and got the ALL CIRCUITS ARE BUSY RECORDING!

Actually, I do like Ben Nelson’s acceptance of a bribe (on behalf of
his state) and Mary Landrieu’s “New Louisiana Purchase”.

Because it give Republicans/conservatives more ammo when Democratic
Senators come up for election.
Here in Missouri, I can see Claire McKaskill catching H-LL when she
(IIRC) stands for re-election in 2012.
Plenty of “At Least Nelson and Landrieu Didn’t Give It Away For Free!”
bumperstickers should appear.

I personally hold every mindless idiot that voted for Zero and these idiots in Congress responsible for the shape this country is in. If people actually paid attention to what they were voting for and not just voting for a black man then this disaster would never happen.

We’re not going to make it to a 2010 election and even then it wont stop the nightmare thats already been started it just will stop the nightmare from progressing even more. We need some serious protesting and outright mass refusal to pay these ridiculous taxes and rates they are going to be throwin our way.

So, we see that the states reps just have to hold out until they get a price they like for their votes for future bills. In our freakin’ face corruption. I “HOPE” they are all going to enjoy the “CHANGE” this country is in for.

Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty.
- Thomas Jefferson

Senator Ben Nelson stands in the eye of the storm in the Health Care Reform Bill Debate.  What an exceptional man!   We all admire and respect his fortitude and resolution.   

It's a time to reflect on the historical fact that a Virgin, years ago, gave birth to a child who still impacts our society today.  Anyone who believes in Christ celebrates Christmas.  And today, we have a man standing up for the right of that very child to be born.  This is a very inspiring time that we are living in.  I hope and pray, as I know you volunteer patriots do, that he prevails.

So, here's a great ad being played in Nebraska.

Let's all call Senator Ben Nelson and ask that he filibuster this Health Reform Bill that he hasn't even been able to read:

Senator Ben Nelson

Remember: They still have to go to conference committee to craft a bill that a majority of dims in the house can vote for...AND STILL get 60 votes in the Senate.

Once the Senate passes their version, they are still less than 1/2 way home.

Nelson accepted something that PERMITS federal funds for abortion. Pretty pathetic sellout.

This whole fiasco is a prima facie case for repeal of the 17th Amendment.

We are knee-deep...
“We are knee-deep in a culture of death. ... Look, in this advanced democracy, in the year 2000, is it our crowning achievement that we have learned to treat people as things?

Our moment in history is marked by a mortal conflict between a culture of life and a culture of death. God put us in the world to do noble things, to love and to cherish our fellow human beings, not to destroy them. Today we must choose sides.” (”Today” could be any day...)
~ Congressman Henry Hyde, during his floor debate remarks pushing for a ban against Partial Birth Abortion in 2000 ~

When the time comes...
When the time comes as it surely will, when we face that awesome moment, the final judgment, I’ve often thought, as Fulton Sheen wrote, that it is a terrible moment of loneliness. You have no advocates, you are there alone standing before God and a terror will rip through your soul like nothing you can imagine. But I really think that those in the pro-life movement will not be alone. I think there will be a chorus of voices that have never been heard in this world but are heard beautifully and clearly in the next world and they will plead for everyone who has been in this movement. They will say to God, “Spare him because he loved us,” and God will look at you and say not, “Did you succeed?” but “Did you try?”
~ Henry Hyde ~
